How I love Nintendo Direct as it is always full of surprises. During the Nintendo of America portion of the video stream, Erik Peterson talked about various eShop titles and also revealed some big Indie game titles coming the next few months. The games were shown in a graphic and here are the titles

Ubisoft has announced that the Wii U version of Watch_Dogs has been delayed later than the spring window of the PS3, PS4, PC, Xbox One and Xbox 360 versions. No hint as to when it will come out, but hopefully it isn’t too long of a wait.

Endgadget is reporting that Nintendo has struck that down quickly, stating “Nikkei’s article contains information previously stated by Mr. Iwata during past press conferences, including statements which relate to Nintendo’s willingness to make use of smart devices to promote our products. However during such past announcements Mr. Iwata has also stated that Nintendo’s intention is not to make Nintendo software available on smart devices and as such, we can confirm that there are no plans to offer mini-games on smartphone devices. “

MyNintendoNews is reporting (via Nikkei) that Nintendo plans to release demos and “mini games” on Android and iOS in order to get mobile customers to eventually become Nintendo console owners (Wii U, 3DS, 2DS.) All the demos and mini games will be free-to-play.
